Answer:

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

Explanation:

As we know that plastic ball is suspended by a string which makes 30 degree angle with the vertical

So here force due to electrostatic force on the charged ball is in horizontal direction along the direction of electric field

while weight of the ball is vertically downwards

so here we have

QE = F_x

mg = F_y

since string makes 30 degree angle with the vertical so we will have

tan\theta = \frac{F_x}{F_y}

tan30 = \frac{QE}{mg}

Q = \frac{mg}{E}tan30

Q = \frac{0.012\times 9.81}{E} tan30

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

A 10.0 kg weather rocket generates a thrust of 230 NN . The rocket, pointing upward, is clamped to the top of a vertical spring.
blondinia [14]

Answer: 0.2m

Explanation: Firstly only the Rocket's Weight Compress the spring which can be found by

F_r=M_r*g\\F_r=10*9.81\\F_r=98.1N

According to Hooks Law

F_r=k*x\\x=F_r/k\\x=98.1/480\\x=0.2m

Two point charges of equal magnitude q are held a distance d apart. Consider only points on the line passing through both charge
NemiM [27]

let us consider that the two charges are of opposite nature .hence they will constitute a dipole .the separation distance is given as d and magnitude of each charges is q.

the mathematical formula for potential is V=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q}{d}

for positive charges the potential is positive and is negative for negative charges.

the formula for electric field is given as-E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q}{r^2}

for positive charges,the line filed is away from it and for negative charges the filed is towards it.

we know that on equitorial line the potential is zero.hence all the points situated on the line passing through centre of the dipole and perpendicular to the dipole length is zero.

here the net electric field due to the dipole can not be zero  between the two charges,but we can find the points situated on the axial  line but  outside of charges where the electric field is zero.

now let the two charges of same nature.let these are positively charged.

here we can not find a point between two charges and on the line joining  two charges  where the potential is zero.

but at the mid point of the line joining two charges the filed is zero.

Robert has just bought a new model roket, and is trying to measure its flight characteristics. The rocket engine package claims
rewona [7]
At the peak of its flight ALL the energy given to the rocket is potential energy (its velocity is zero) and that is calculated as mgh So Energy given to rocket = mgh Energy expended by engine = F x D (D= height where engine stops) Energy 'lost' to drag is the difference between the two values. please if this helped mark it as the brainiest answer.

Explain why some of the tree get detached from a tree if we vigorously shake it's Branch.​
Rasek [7]

Answer:

When a tree is vigorously shaken, the branches of the tree come in motion but the leaves tend to continue in their state of rest due to inertia of rest. As a result of this, leaves get separated from the branches of the tree and hence fall down.
